The effects of the solid contacting area,conductive materials and fixing between the substrate and the base were investigated without affecting the other parameters. Experimental results indicated that the preferable solid contacting area was more than 60% of total contacting areal; the particular Sn-Pb alloy was more suitable for conducting heat and the concentric fixing ring was a better setting for controlling the substrate temperature. The result was explained in terms of the variable thermal contact resistance at the interface between substrate and base. The diamond films were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy （SEM） for morphology, X-ray diffraction （XRD） for the intensity of characteristic spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy for structure.展开更多

The most important factor of thrombosis in the blood pump is the quality of blood contacting surface which is related to hemocompatibility of materials and micromorphololgy or roughness of the surface. So it is necessary to understand the morphology of the surface inside of blood pump in order to develop and improve a good quality blood pump. The authors observed and analysed the inner surface of blood pumps (both preimplanted and postimplanted) with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) providing a means for evaluating the blood pumps and for developing good quality of blood pumps. It was observed that there were four kinds of surface defects on the inner surface of the blood pumps: air bubble domes, open bubble craters, contaminated dust and gel particles. Microcrakes had also been found on the diaphragm of the postimplanted pump. But in the newly improved blood pump that had been imlanted for 16 days, there were few defects on the blood contacting surface, and only a little fibrinous layer observed. It could be considered that the current design and modifications are reasonable. Since some problems associated with the surface defects and thrombosis still existed, further improvement in fabrication process and quality control procedures with SEM are under way.展开更多

An oscillating force superimposed onto a static compressive force in the vertical direction excites the vibration of a rigid sphere, which causes variable contact radius and contact pressure distribution in the contact region. The assumption of a sufficiently small oscillating force yields a dynamic contact-pressure distribution of a constant contact radius, which gives dynamic contact stiffness at the interface between the rigid sphere and the semi-infinite solid. Numerical calculations show the influence of vibration frequency of the sphere, and elastic constants of the transversely isotropic solid on dynamic contact stiffness, which benefits quantitative evaluation of elastic constants and orientation of single hexagonal grains by resonance-frequency shifts of the oscillator in resonance ultrasound microscopy.展开更多

potential to significant...[Background and purposes]Proton exchange membrane fuel cells(PEMFCs),which convert hydrogen energy directly into electrical energy and water,have received overwhelming attention,owing to their potential to significantly reduce energy consumption,pollution emissions and reliance on fossil fuels.Bipolar plates are the major part and key component of PEMFCs stack,which provide mechanical strength,collect and conduct current segregate oxidants and reduce agents.They contribute 70-80%weight and 20-30%cost of a whole stack,while significantly affecting the power density.There are three types plates,including metal bipolar plate,graphite bipolar plate and composite bipolar plate.Stainless steel bipolar plates,as one of metal bipolar plate,exhibit promising manufacturability,competitive cost and durability among various metal materials.However,stainless steel would be corroded in the harsh acid(pH 2-5)and humid PEMFCs environment,whereas the leached ions will contaminate the membrane.In addition,the passivated film formed on the surface will increase the interfacial contact resistance(ICR).In order to improve the corrosion resistance and electrical conductivity of steel bipolar plates,surface coatings are essential.Metal nitride coatings,metal carbide coatings,polymer coatings and carbon-based coatings have been introduced in recent years.Carbon-based coatings,mainly including a-C(amorphous Carbon),Ta-C(Tetrahedral amorphous carbon)and DLC(diamond-like carbon),have attracted considerable attention from both academia and industry,owing to their superior performance,such as chemical inertness,mechanical hardness and electrical conductivity.However,Ta-C films as protective coating of PEMFCs have been rarely reported,due to the difficulty in production for industrial application.In this paper,multi-layer Ta-C composite films were produced by using customized industrial-scale vacuum equipment to address those issues.[Methods]Multiple layered Ta-C coatings were prepared by using PIS624 equipment,which assembled filtered cathodic arc evaporation,ion beam and magnetron sputtering into one equipment,while SS304 and silicon specimens were used as substrate for testing and analysis.Adhesion layer and intermediate layer were deposited by using magnetron sputtering at deposition temperature of 150℃and pressure of 3×10^(−1) Pa,while the sputtering current was set to be 5 A and bias power to be 300 V.The Ta-C layer was coated at arc current of 80-100 A,bias voltage of 1500 V and gas flow of 75 sccm.A scanning electron microscope(CIQTEK SEM3200)was used to characterize surface morphology,coating structure and cross-section profile of the coatings.Raman spectrometer(LabRam HR Evolution,HORIBA JOBIN YVON)was used to identify the bonding valence states.Electrochemical tests were performed by using an electrochemical work station(CHI760,Shanghai Chenhua Instrument Co.,Ltd.),with the traditional three electrode system,where saturated Ag/AgCl and platinum mesh were used as the reference electrode and counter electrode,respectively.All samples were mounted in plastic tube and sealed with epoxy resin,with an exposure area of 2.25 cm^(2),serving as the working electrode.Electrochemical measurements were carried out in simulated PEMFCs cathode environment in 0.5 mol·L^(−1) H_(2)SO_(4)+5 ppm F−solution,at operating temperature of 70℃.As the cathode environment was harsher than the anode environment,all the samples are stabilized at the open-circuit potential(OCP)for approximately 30 min before the EIS measurements.ICR between bipolar plates and GDL was a key parameter affecting performance of the PEMFCs stack.The test sample sandwiched between 2 pieces of carbon paper(simulate gas diffusion layer,GDL)was placed between 2 gold-plated copper electrodes at a compaction pressure of 1.4 MPa,which was considered to be the conventional compaction pressure in the PEMFCs.Under the same conditions,the resistance of a single carbon paper was measured as well.The ICR was calculated according to the formula ICR=1/2(R2−R1)×S,where S was the contact area between GDL and coated stainless steel BPPs.All data of ICR were measured three times for averaging.[Results]The coatings deposited by filtered cathodic arc technology were compact and smooth,which reduced coating porosity and favorable to corrosion resistance.The coating thickness of adhesion and intermediate layers were 180 nm,while the protective Ta-C coating thickness was about 300 nm,forming multiple coating to provide stronger protection for metal bipolar plates.Cr,Ti,Nb and Ta coatings were selected as adhesion layers for comparison.According to electrochemical test,Ta and Nb coatings have higher corrosion resistance.However,Ta and Nb materials would be costly when they are used for mass production.Relatively,Cr and Ti materials were cost effective.Hence,a comprehensive assessment was indispensable to decide the materials to be selected as adhesion layer.Ta-TiN and Ti-TiN combined adhesion and intermediate layer exhibited stronger corrosion resistance,with the corrosion current to be less than 10^(−6) A·cm^(−2).Ta-C protective coating deposited by using filtered cathodic arc technology indicated displayed higher corrosion resistance,with the average corrosion density to be about 1.26×10^(−7) A·cm^(−2).Ta-C coating also shown larger contact angle,with the highest hydrophobicity,which was one of the important advantages for Ta-C,in terms of corrosion resistance.According to Raman spectroscopy,the I(D)/I(G)=549.8/1126.7=0.487,with the estimated fraction of sp^(3) bonding to be in the range of 5154%.The intermediate layer TiN has higher conductivity than the CrN layer.Considering cost,corrosion performance and ICR result,the Ti-TiN layer combination is recommended for industrial scale application.[Conclusions]Multiple layer coating structure of Ta-C film had stronger corrosion resistance;with more than 50%sp^(3) content,while it also had larger water contact angle and higher corrosion resistance than DLC film.The filtered arcing deposition technology was able to make the film to be more consistent and stable than normal arcing technology in terms of the preparation of Ta-C.The coating displayed corrosion density of 1.26×10^(−7) A·cm^(−2) and ICR of less than 5 mΩ·cm^(2),far beyond technical target of 2025 DOE(US Department of Energy).This indicated that the mass-production scale coating technology for PEMFC bipolar plates is highly possible.展开更多

Conversely, in the interface between two layers of soil with different properties, pore water flows slowly along the pore channels, demonstrating laminar flow phenomenon. To predict the thermal contact resistance and flow contact resistance at the interface, this paper constructs general imperfect thermal contact model and general imperfect flow contact model, respectively. Utilizing a thermo-hydro- mechanical coupling model, the thermal consolidation behavior of multilayered saturated soil under two-dimensional conditions is investigated. Fourier and Laplace transformations are applied to decouple the governing equations, yielding expressions for the temperature increment, pore water pressure, and displacement in multilayered saturated soil. The inverse Fourier-Laplace transformation is then used to obtain numerical solutions, which are compared with degeneration solutions to validate the computational accuracy. The differences in the thermal consolidation process under various thermal contact and flow contact resistance models are discussed. Furthermore, the impact of parameters such as the thermal resistance coefficient, partition thermal contact coefficient, flow contact resistance coefficient, and partition flow contact coefficient on thermal consolidation are investigated. Results indicate that thermal contact resistance creates a relative thermal gradient at the interface, leading to increased pore water pressure and reduced displacement nearby. In contrast, flow contact resistance generates a relative pore pressure gradient at the interface, resulting in increased displacement within the saturated soil with minimal effect on temperature increment distribution.展开更多

文摘Two rollers contact each other under the normal load,and when the driving roller rotates,it drives the driven roller rotate by the tangential force on contact area.Finite Element Method analysis and experimental analysis are adopted to research the motion mechanism of two rollers which elasticity has big difference both on the condition of direct contact and indirect contact.From the analysis it is achieved that the relative sliding between the two rollers is due to the tangential force on the contact area and the radial compression deformation of the soft roller which has greater elasticity.For the condition of indirect contact in which a layer of inter-medium exists between the two rollers,the relative sliding is greater than that on the condition of direct contact,and the hardness of the intermedium layer affects the relative sliding between the two rollers.And for the condition of multiple rollers in the state of pressing contact,the number of contact areas on the soft roller also affects its motion characteristics.

文摘Based on an incompressible model, by using the large stain theory, the contact of a rubber wedge with a rigid notch is analyzed by the asymptotic method. The problem is treated as a symmetric case, and the contact surface is smooth. The stress and strain ?eld near the apex of the rubber wedge is shown to be singular, and the angular distributions of stress and strain are obtained. Two important parameters t and tˉ are introduced to attain the conclusions. The result shows that the singular exponent order of stress ?eld is ln r.
文摘BACKGROUND Systematic reviews(SRs)synthesize and evaluate data,mainly from randomized trials,which then guides the development of clinical recommendations in evidence-based medicine.However,the data and methodological information in the included papers can often be lacking or unclear,and reviewers usually need to contact the authors of included studies for clarifications.Contacting authors is recommended,but it is unclear how often SR teams do it,or what the level of response is.AIM To investigate how often reviewers undertake contact with the authors of included randomized controlled trials(RCTs)for clarification on data and risk of bias concerns,to explore the factors that influence whether SR authors contact or do not contact the authors,and the content and level of responses.METHODS We conducted a systematic electronic database search in MEDLINE using the search string“(systematic review)”AND“(RCT OR randomized OR trial)”for articles published between 1 January 2024 and 19 February 2024,without language restrictions.Screening and data extraction was done independently by two reviewers,and conflicts resolved by a senior author.Contact authors of included SRs were contacted for clarifications.RESULTS Of the 329 included SRs,38%(n=125)explicitly mentioned contact with the authors of included studies.The remaining 62%(n=204)did not.We attempted contact with all SR teams for clarifications and received 90 responses(19.4%).Of the 50 respondents who did not explicitly mention contact in their SRs,25(50%)replied that they did make contact.We received a total of 64 responses on the level and content of information sought.The mean±SD contacts SR teams made were 10(10),replies received 5(6.7),and response waiting time 10.1(28.3)weeks.Resources,time,poor previous experience,perceived likelihood of poor response and bias concerns were reported as barriers to attempting contact.CONCLUSION The majority of SRs published in 2024 did not confirm seeking clarifying or missing information from primary study authors.However,SR teams reported that 50%of contacted primary authors respond.Additional research can clarify this rate of response and establish methods to increase the integration of this core methodological element in SRs.

文摘The contact problem of deformed rough surfaces exists widely in complex engineering structures.How to reveal the influence mechanism of surface deformation on the contact properties is a key issue in evaluating the interface performances of the engineering structures.In this paper,a contact model is established,which is suitable for tensile and bending deformed contact surfaces.Four contact forms of asperities are proposed,and their distribution characteristics are analyzed.This model reveals the mechanism of friction generation from the perspective of the force balance of asperity.The results show the contact behaviors of the deformed contact surface are significantly different from that of the plane contact,which is mainly reflected in the change in the number of contact asperities and the real contact area.This study suggests that the real contact area of the interface can be altered by applying tensile and bending strains,thereby regulating its contact mechanics and conductive behavior.

文摘The models constructed by particle flow simulation method can effectively simulate the heterogeneous substance characteristics and failure behaviors of rocks.However,existing contact models overlook the rock cracks,and the various simulation methods that do consider cracks still exhibit certain limitations.In this paper,based on Flat-Joint model and Linear Parallel Bond model,a crack contact model considering linked substance in the crack is proposed by splitting the crack contact into two portions:linked portion and unlinked portion for calculation.The new contact model considers the influence of crack closure on the contact force-displacement law.And a better compressive tensile strength ratio(UCS/T)was obtained by limiting the failure of the contact bond to be solely controlled by the contact force and moment of the linked portion.Then,by employing the FISH Model tool within the Particle Flow Code,the contact model was constructed and verified through contact force–displacement experiments and loading-unloading tests with cracked model.Finally,the contact model was tested through simulations of rock mechanics experiments.The results indicate that the contact model can effectively simulate the axial and lateral strain laws of rocks simultaneously and has a relatively good reproduction of the bi-modularity of rocks.

文摘Rolling contact fatigue performance is among the most important issues for applications of bearing steels.In this work,a recently developed surface modification technique,surface mechanical rolling treatment,was applied on a rare-earth addition bearing steel.And rolling contact fatigue behavior of treated samples was compared with that of as-received counterparts at different contacting stresses.The results demonstrated that a 700μm-thick gradient nanostructured surface layer is produced on samples by surface mechanical rolling treatment.The grain size decreases while the microhardness increases gradually with decreasing depth,reaching~23 nm and~10.2 GPa,respectively,at the top surface.Consequently,the rolling contact fatigue property is significantly enhanced.The characteristic life of treated samples is~3.2 times that of untreated counterparts according to Weibull curves at 5.6 GPa.Analyses of fatigue mechanisms demonstrated that the gradient nanostructured surface layer might not only retard material degradation and microcrack formation,but also prolong the steady-state elastic response stage under rolling contact fatigue.

文摘All-solid-state lithium batteries(ASSLBs)are strongly considered as the next-generation energy storage devices for their high energy density and intrinsic safety.The solid-solid contact between lithium metal and solid electrolyte plays a vital role in the performance of working ASSLBs,which is challenging to investigate quantitatively by experimental approach.This work proposed a quantitative model based on the finite element method for electrochemical impedance spectroscopy simulation of different solid-solid contact states in ASSLBs.With the assistance of an equivalent circuit model and distribution of relaxation times,it is discovered that as the number of voids and the sharpness of cracks increase,the contact resistance Rcgrows and ultimately dominates the battery impedance.Through accurate fitting,inverse proportional relations between contact resistance Rcand(1-porosity)as well as crack angle was disclosed.This contribution affords a fresh insight into clarifying solid-solid contact states in ASSLBs.
文摘In order to explore the mechanism of improving the surface wettability of low-energy polytetrafluoroethylene(PTFE)by new extended surfactants,five kinds of extended anionic surfactants with different numbers of oxypropylene(PO)and oxyethylene(EO),octadecyl-(PO)_(m)-(EO)_(n)-sodium carboxylate(C_(18)PO_(m)EO_(n)C,m=5,10,15,n=5,10,15),were studied.The surface tension and contact angle of C_(18)PO_(m)EO_(n)C solution with different concentrations were measured,and the adhesion tension,PTFE-water interfacial tension,and adhesion work were calculated.It was found that the extended surfactant molecules adsorb on the surface of the solution and the PTFE-liquid interface simultaneously when the concentration is lower than the critical micelle concentration(cmc),and there was a linear relationship between surface tension and adhesion tension.The adsorption amount of C_(18)PO_(m)EO_(n)C at the PTFE-water interface was significantly lower than that on the surface of the solution.As the concentration increases above cmc,semi-micelle aggregates on the surface of PTFE are formed by C_(18)PO_(m)EO_(n)C molecules through hydrophobic interaction,and the hydrophilic group faces the solution to modify the surface of PTFE with high efficiency.

文摘[Background and purposes]Proton exchange membrane fuel cells(PEMFCs),which convert hydrogen energy directly into electrical energy and water,have received overwhelming attention,owing to their potential to significantly reduce energy consumption,pollution emissions and reliance on fossil fuels.Bipolar plates are the major part and key component of PEMFCs stack,which provide mechanical strength,collect and conduct current segregate oxidants and reduce agents.They contribute 70-80%weight and 20-30%cost of a whole stack,while significantly affecting the power density.There are three types plates,including metal bipolar plate,graphite bipolar plate and composite bipolar plate.Stainless steel bipolar plates,as one of metal bipolar plate,exhibit promising manufacturability,competitive cost and durability among various metal materials.However,stainless steel would be corroded in the harsh acid(pH 2-5)and humid PEMFCs environment,whereas the leached ions will contaminate the membrane.In addition,the passivated film formed on the surface will increase the interfacial contact resistance(ICR).In order to improve the corrosion resistance and electrical conductivity of steel bipolar plates,surface coatings are essential.Metal nitride coatings,metal carbide coatings,polymer coatings and carbon-based coatings have been introduced in recent years.Carbon-based coatings,mainly including a-C(amorphous Carbon),Ta-C(Tetrahedral amorphous carbon)and DLC(diamond-like carbon),have attracted considerable attention from both academia and industry,owing to their superior performance,such as chemical inertness,mechanical hardness and electrical conductivity.However,Ta-C films as protective coating of PEMFCs have been rarely reported,due to the difficulty in production for industrial application.In this paper,multi-layer Ta-C composite films were produced by using customized industrial-scale vacuum equipment to address those issues.[Methods]Multiple layered Ta-C coatings were prepared by using PIS624 equipment,which assembled filtered cathodic arc evaporation,ion beam and magnetron sputtering into one equipment,while SS304 and silicon specimens were used as substrate for testing and analysis.Adhesion layer and intermediate layer were deposited by using magnetron sputtering at deposition temperature of 150℃and pressure of 3×10^(−1) Pa,while the sputtering current was set to be 5 A and bias power to be 300 V.The Ta-C layer was coated at arc current of 80-100 A,bias voltage of 1500 V and gas flow of 75 sccm.A scanning electron microscope(CIQTEK SEM3200)was used to characterize surface morphology,coating structure and cross-section profile of the coatings.Raman spectrometer(LabRam HR Evolution,HORIBA JOBIN YVON)was used to identify the bonding valence states.Electrochemical tests were performed by using an electrochemical work station(CHI760,Shanghai Chenhua Instrument Co.,Ltd.),with the traditional three electrode system,where saturated Ag/AgCl and platinum mesh were used as the reference electrode and counter electrode,respectively.All samples were mounted in plastic tube and sealed with epoxy resin,with an exposure area of 2.25 cm^(2),serving as the working electrode.Electrochemical measurements were carried out in simulated PEMFCs cathode environment in 0.5 mol·L^(−1) H_(2)SO_(4)+5 ppm F−solution,at operating temperature of 70℃.As the cathode environment was harsher than the anode environment,all the samples are stabilized at the open-circuit potential(OCP)for approximately 30 min before the EIS measurements.ICR between bipolar plates and GDL was a key parameter affecting performance of the PEMFCs stack.The test sample sandwiched between 2 pieces of carbon paper(simulate gas diffusion layer,GDL)was placed between 2 gold-plated copper electrodes at a compaction pressure of 1.4 MPa,which was considered to be the conventional compaction pressure in the PEMFCs.Under the same conditions,the resistance of a single carbon paper was measured as well.The ICR was calculated according to the formula ICR=1/2(R2−R1)×S,where S was the contact area between GDL and coated stainless steel BPPs.All data of ICR were measured three times for averaging.[Results]The coatings deposited by filtered cathodic arc technology were compact and smooth,which reduced coating porosity and favorable to corrosion resistance.The coating thickness of adhesion and intermediate layers were 180 nm,while the protective Ta-C coating thickness was about 300 nm,forming multiple coating to provide stronger protection for metal bipolar plates.Cr,Ti,Nb and Ta coatings were selected as adhesion layers for comparison.According to electrochemical test,Ta and Nb coatings have higher corrosion resistance.However,Ta and Nb materials would be costly when they are used for mass production.Relatively,Cr and Ti materials were cost effective.Hence,a comprehensive assessment was indispensable to decide the materials to be selected as adhesion layer.Ta-TiN and Ti-TiN combined adhesion and intermediate layer exhibited stronger corrosion resistance,with the corrosion current to be less than 10^(−6) A·cm^(−2).Ta-C protective coating deposited by using filtered cathodic arc technology indicated displayed higher corrosion resistance,with the average corrosion density to be about 1.26×10^(−7) A·cm^(−2).Ta-C coating also shown larger contact angle,with the highest hydrophobicity,which was one of the important advantages for Ta-C,in terms of corrosion resistance.According to Raman spectroscopy,the I(D)/I(G)=549.8/1126.7=0.487,with the estimated fraction of sp^(3) bonding to be in the range of 5154%.The intermediate layer TiN has higher conductivity than the CrN layer.Considering cost,corrosion performance and ICR result,the Ti-TiN layer combination is recommended for industrial scale application.[Conclusions]Multiple layer coating structure of Ta-C film had stronger corrosion resistance;with more than 50%sp^(3) content,while it also had larger water contact angle and higher corrosion resistance than DLC film.The filtered arcing deposition technology was able to make the film to be more consistent and stable than normal arcing technology in terms of the preparation of Ta-C.The coating displayed corrosion density of 1.26×10^(−7) A·cm^(−2) and ICR of less than 5 mΩ·cm^(2),far beyond technical target of 2025 DOE(US Department of Energy).This indicated that the mass-production scale coating technology for PEMFC bipolar plates is highly possible.

文摘In this paper,an incremental contact model is developed for the elastic self-affine fractal rough surfaces under plane strain condition.The contact between a rough surface and a rigid plane is simplified by the accumulation of identical line contacts with half-width given by the truncated area divided by the contact patch number at varying heights.Based on the contact stiffness of two-dimensional flat punch,the total stiffness of rough surface is estimated,and then the normal load is calculated by an incremental method.For various rough surfaces,the approximately linear load-area relationships predicted by the proposed model agree well with the results of finite element simulations.It is found that the real average contact pressure depends significantly on profile properties.

文摘Semiconducting transition-metal dichalcogenides(TMDs)have garnered significant interest due to their unique structures and properties,positioning them as promising candidates for novel electronic and optoelectronic devices.However,the performance of TMDs-based devices is hampered by the suboptimal quality of metal electrodes contacting the atomically thin TMDs layers.Understanding the mechanisms that influence contact quality is crucial for advancing TMDs devices.In this study,we investigated the conductive properties of tungsten selenide(WSe_(2))-based devices with different film thicknesses.Using the transmission line method,a negative correlation between contact resistance and film thickness in multi-electrode devices was revealed.Additionally,repeatability tests conducted at varied temperatures indicated enhanced device stability with increasing film thickness.Theoretical analysis,supported by thermionic emission theory and thermal simulations,suggests that the degradation in electrical properties is primarily due to the thermal effect at the contact interface.Furthermore,we found that van der Waals contacts could mitigate the thermal effect through a metal transfer method.Our findings elucidate the critical role of contact resistance in the electronic performance of 2D material-based field-effect transistors(FETs),which further expands their potential in the next generation of electronic and optoelectronic devices.

文摘When the interface of a multilayered saturated soil is rough with noticeable gaps, heat flow lines converge towards the actual contact points, causing thermal flow contraction. Conversely, in the interface between two layers of soil with different properties, pore water flows slowly along the pore channels, demonstrating laminar flow phenomenon. To predict the thermal contact resistance and flow contact resistance at the interface, this paper constructs general imperfect thermal contact model and general imperfect flow contact model, respectively. Utilizing a thermo-hydro- mechanical coupling model, the thermal consolidation behavior of multilayered saturated soil under two-dimensional conditions is investigated. Fourier and Laplace transformations are applied to decouple the governing equations, yielding expressions for the temperature increment, pore water pressure, and displacement in multilayered saturated soil. The inverse Fourier-Laplace transformation is then used to obtain numerical solutions, which are compared with degeneration solutions to validate the computational accuracy. The differences in the thermal consolidation process under various thermal contact and flow contact resistance models are discussed. Furthermore, the impact of parameters such as the thermal resistance coefficient, partition thermal contact coefficient, flow contact resistance coefficient, and partition flow contact coefficient on thermal consolidation are investigated. Results indicate that thermal contact resistance creates a relative thermal gradient at the interface, leading to increased pore water pressure and reduced displacement nearby. In contrast, flow contact resistance generates a relative pore pressure gradient at the interface, resulting in increased displacement within the saturated soil with minimal effect on temperature increment distribution.

文摘This study proposes a general imperfect thermal contact model to predict the thermal contact resistance at the interface among multi-layered composite structures.Based on the Green-Lindsay(GL)thermoelastic theory,semi analytical solutions of temperature increment and displacement of multi-layered composite structures are obtained by using the Laplace transform method,upon which the effects of thermal resistance coefficient,partition coefficient,thermal conductivity ratio and heat capacity ratio on the responses are studied.The results show that the generalized imperfect thermal contact model can realistically describe the imperfect thermal contact problem.Accordingly,it may degenerate into other thermal contact models by adjusting the thermal resistance coefficient and partition coefficient.
